R/: You, Lord, are my praise in the great assembly. You Lord, You Lord are my Praise.
My vows I will pay before those who fear him.
The poor shall eat and shall have their fill.
They shall praise the Lord, those who seek him.
May their hearts live for ever and ever!

And my soul shall live for him, my children serve him.
They shall tell of the Lord to generations yet to come,
declare his faithfulness to peoples yet unborn:
‘These things the Lord has done.’

Offertory Song
Let there be love
1. Let there be love shared among us,
let there be love in our eyes,
may now your love sweep this nation,
cause us O Lord to arise.
Give us a fresh understanding
filled with your love that is real,
let there be love shared among us,
let there be love.
2. Let there be peace shared among us,
let there be peace in our eyes,
may now your peace sweep this nation,
cause us O Lord to arise.
Give us a fresh understanding
filled with your peace that is real,
let there be peace shared among us,
let there be peace.

Prayer of Spiritual Communion
My Jesus,
I believe that You are present
in this Holy Sacrament of the altar.
I love You above all things
and I passionately desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally,
come spiritually into my soul
so that I may unite myself wholly to You
now and forever.
Amen.
Based on a prayer of St Alphonsus Liguorit
Communion Song
Refrain:
I will be the Vine and you will be the branches.
All you who live in Me will never, never die.
I will be the Sign, I will offer many chances;
So live, oh live in Me and you shall have new life.
Verse 1:
Remain in Me, as I remain in you
You may ask what you will, ask what you will,
And you shall receive
Refrain
Verse 2:
As the Father loved Me, so have I loved you.
Remain in My love, remain in My love,
And I will give you life.
Refrain
Verse 3:
If you are My friends, you will live my commands.
There is no greater love, no greater love
Than to lay down your life for your friends.
Refrain
